By removing the excess paint, you’re not only preserving the roller for the next use, but also putting a good bit of paint back in the can. By Mark Fix it Friends with Benefits fun videos HisFixitUpLife How-to Love it Painting Tools We don’t just say we love our Hyde Tools 17-in-1 multi-tool, we mean it. Using the 17-in-1 as a screwdriver is really an “emergency only” option, so it needs to be functional and little else.I found that the wrench cutouts fit on some of the connections coming off my boiler and I’m sure they’d fit on other things in the house as well, but it’s a little awkward to use for any extended period of time. Hyde 06985 17 in 1 Painter's Multi Tool combining the company’s trademark high-quality, lightweight design with a tool that can perform 17 functions.

Like most similar tools, the Hyde can open a can of paint, scrape and apply putty, set a nailhead, open a bottle, pull a nail, and unscrew little things like electrical plates or light enclosures. The Hyde 6-in-1 doesn’t have the best features of our main pick, but it’s cheap, and you can still use it to open a can of paint, scrape, apply putty, and clean a large roller. This is the only painter’s multitool that we found that cleans two sizes of roller covers, and it can also open paint cans, scrape old plaster, and crack a beer, among many other tasks.This rugged tool has an overmold handle with a thumb stop for safety and a blade that resists rusting.
